Altar of the Prophet
'''Prophet's Miḥrāb'''(Arabic:محراب النبي) is the place where the [[Prophet Muḥammad(a)]] prays, which is located in the [[Masjid al-Nabī]] between the [[Prophet's pulpit]] and his grave. During the period of the Prophet, there was nothing in the form of a miḥrāb, until during the development of the Masjid al-Nabī during the period of Walīd b. Abdul-Malik, a miḥrāb was built in the place of his prayer. Qāytbāy, the king of Egypt (9th/15th century) rebuilt the hollow-shaped miḥrāb by renewing the mosque. this miḥrāb was decorated during the era of Ottoman rule and is still located in Masjid al-Nabī.
The Prophet’s Altar is the place where the Prophet (PBUH) prays, which is located in the Prophet’s Mosque between the Prophet’s pulpit and his grave. During the period of the Prophet, there was nothing in the form of a mihrab, until during the development of the Prophet’s Mosque during the period of Walid bin Abdul Malik, a mihrab was built in the place of his prayer. Qaytbay, the king of Egypt (9th century AD) rebuilt the hollow altar by renewing the mosque. Ibn Mihrab was decorated during the era of Ottoman rule and is still located in Masjid al-Nabi.
History
During the time of the Prophet (PBUH), in the place of Masjid al-Nabi where he prayed, there was no mihrab in the form of a hollow inside the wall[1. Ṣāliḥī Lumaʿī,  Muṣṭafā .  Al-madīna al-munawwara. P59] and the place of prayer of the Prophet had no sign except that it was next to the Makhalkah pillar. [2. Sayyid Ḍīyāʾ b. Muḥammad b. Maqbūl ʿAṭṭār.Al-Taʿrīf  bi tārīkh wa maʿālim al-masjid al-nabawīī al-sharīf.p162] This was the first time in the development of Masjid al-Nabi. During the period of Walid bin Abd al-Malik (reign 86-96 AH), a mihrab was built at the place of the Prophet’s prayer.[3. Sayyid al-Wakīl,Al-masjid al-nabawīī ʿabar  tārīkh.p128.  Jaʿfariyān, Rasūl.  ’Āthār-i islāmi-yi Makka wa Madīna’’p260]
During the Mamluk period
Although historical sources do not have any reports about the reconstruction of the mihrab during the period of Baybars Bundogdari (reigned 658-676 AH), the fourth Mamluk sultan, some researchers, by examining historical evidence, believe that the first hollow-shaped mihrab (carved into the wall) in the reconstructions of the Baybars period in the place The prayer of the Prophet (PBUH) was made; Because the reports of the sources before this date did not mention the existence of a hollow altar in the place of the Prophet’s shrine. [4 Hazzaʿ al-Shahrī, Muḥammad .ʿImārah al-masjid al-nabawīī. P227]
In the restoration of Masjid-ul-Nabi during the period of Qaytbai, the Sultan of Egypt, in 888 after the fire in Masjid-ul-Nabi, the mihrab was rebuilt in the place of the Prophet’s prayer, and in the same period, it was decorated with marble and verses from the Qur’an were engraved on it [5. Hazzaʿ al-Shahrī, Muḥammad .ʿImārah al-masjid al-nabawīī. P342]. ]
In the Ottoman period
In the restoration of Masjid al-Nabi during the reign of Sultan Abdul Majid I, the Prophet’s altar, which was left over from the time of Qaytbay, was gilded. Also, during this time, Abdullah Zahdi, a Turkish calligrapher, engraved verses of the Quran, texts and poems on the mihrab.[6. Ṣāliḥī Lumaʿī,  Muṣṭafā .  Al-madīna al-munawwara p.96] In the Saudi period, the same mihrab of the Qaytbay period remained.[7. ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī p170]
Place
The Prophet’s altar was built in the place of the Prophet’s Mosque where the Messenger of God (pbuh) prayed. [3] This altar is located next to the Mukhallaqah pillar [8. Sayyid al-Wakīl.Al-masjid al-nabawīī ʿabar  tārīkhp163 ] and in the distance between the pulpit of the Prophet (pbuh) and his grave (Rawzah Sharifah). [9.Sayyid al-Wakīl.Al-masjid al-nabawīī ʿabar  tārīkh p163 ] Researchers are of the opinion that this place is the place where the Prophet (PBUH) prayed. [3.Sayyid al-Wakīl,Al-masjid al-nabawīī ʿabar  tārīkh.p128.  Jaʿfariyān, Rasūl.  ’Āthār-i islāmi-yi Makka wa Madīna’’p260 ]
The mihrab is placed in such a way that the one who prostrates on it places his forehead on the Prophet’s sitting place, not his prostration place. [8.  Sayyid al-Wakīl.Al-masjid al-nabawīī ʿabar  tārīkhp163] The Prophet’s prostration place is placed under the mihrab.[10.Sayyid Ḍīyāʾ b. Muḥammad b. Maqbūl ʿAṭṭār.Al-Taʿrīf  bi tārīkh wa maʿālim al-masjid al-nabawīī al-sharīf p164 ]
